Re: How would you describe your personal style?

You're a student, Miss Casey, you won't be po' forever. I have a friend who dresses from thrift shops exclusively (on general principle - she isn't po') and she always looks very well turned out.

I like a clean, classic, unfussy, casual look for myself, a bit preppy but not self consciously so. It just looks best on me. And for better, dressier clothes I like simple clean lines in good quality fabrics and cuts. I really admire dandies and extravagant dressers, however. But I have to be comfortable or I'm miserable - no tight shoes or very high heels or tight clothes or big jangly jewelry. Can't stand to wear all that, but I like to look.

I'm pretty much the same way; I couldn't have said it better myself.

I send thee this sweet perfume a fragrance to the fragrant, as one would offer wine to the god of wine.

My style is safe, elegant and a bit boring when I dress in suit, but colorful and trendy when i dress down - sort of like a Chanel Allure Homme frag one day and an YSL frag the otherbday; but I still dress better than 98% of the male Danish population !
The 2% that dress better are either designers, Dandy's or gays - or all 3 things in one

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Changing dramatically in recent years, from slightly scruffy and fairly colourful, and rarely wearing perfume - to something far more minimalist and classic (but never formal - can't pull it off), and wearing scent every day without fail. At the moment I'm really into grey, which is something of a shock.

In a word, aiming for 'chic'; no idea if that's the look I'm achieving though!

Oh, and I hate crocs, fleeces, football shirts and slippers. Although I accept that these items have a specific (and limited) role to play.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Lets see... I work for myself so I never need to meet a dress code. I stopped shaving because it irritates my skin, I have sideburns and otherwise just use electric clippers to maintain a short stubble, it looks like I haven't shaved in 2 days all the time.

I like blacks, greys and understated colors, nothing too gaudy.

But recently I've been upgrading my wardrobe, looking for quality clothing that is not made in China and also doesn't cost a fortune. I wear jeans or casual trousers with a nice t-shirt or a casual, sporty button down... lately going for more form fitting clothes and pants with lower rises and tapered legs, but stopping short of the emo/hipster/skinny jeans look. I picked up a few pairs of Agave jeans and shirts for 80% off on STP, they are made in the USA. Scored a pair of Hickey Freeman linen trousers for $25 on ebay, made in Italy. It takes patience to find deals but I'm finding 60-80% off is normal if you're willing to look around and don't need the newest releases. Black calfskin leather jacket or Filson wool pea coat in the winter. Sneakers, sandals or nicer casual shoes.... Ferragamo chukkas, Allen Edmonds saddle shoes, classic black leather oxfords. A couple pairs of Simple and Five Ten sneakers. Ecco sandals.

I dress up much more than other people in my high school. Ill take a collared shirt or a sweater (or both) over a t-shirt most of the time. I'm also pretty colorful, my favorite collared shirt is pastel pink.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Smart casual, I'd say. Sometimes more casual, other times smarter. As I'm starting to get on a bit and recently started to date much more conservative (and rich) women, I will have to move into the smart direction a little more, me thinks.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Fashion rocker.

= mostly blacks or greys with color accents. Beetle boots, loafers, or rocker hightops. Tight fitting pants and Ts with leather jacket or snappy pop collar jacket. Steel and copper accessories, occasionally a pink checkered tie with the T, or suspenders. Hair shaved on one side & spiked on the other, short trimmed beard. Guyliner at the club.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Clean'll do it.

Hoodies with jeans or cammoes in the winter and shorts and T's in the summer. I'll suit up for an occasion and don't mind wearing some bright colours. But mostly I have an imposing physical presence and an easy going personality that have both been in style far longer than any clothes I have ever owned. The first makes it hard to find high fashion gear and the second makes it seem a little pointless. But I'm comfortable with it.

But lately I been toying with the idea of putting a little steam punk in the mix. Its not like anyone will say anything. And if they do, I'll just laugh it off.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

I have weird taste in clothes. I like Stylish, fitted and tailored, yet with a casual, relaxed feel.
I love shimmery, glittery, loud, colourful, gaudy, bright, furry, shiny things.
I'm a big fan of funny t shirts, sexy dresses, tight jeans, and killer heels, yet i am in a period of limbo, having relocated to a place where fashion is almost shunned. So i'm mixing my styles, with some unusual effects.
My flashy, funky heels coupled with sporting, hiking clothes. A nice long floaty skirt, paired with Bogs Wellies. Long camo cargo fishing pants, worn with New Rock Custom Made Knee Boots. But always the hair, nails, make up, and my delicious aromas are complete. And a huge fan of thrift stores, i like getting things from there, because items are unique, and often vintage. The chances of bumping into someone wearing the same thing as me are somewhat remote.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

I dont really have a "style". At times I dress trendy/upscale, teetering on metro sexuality, and at times I wear jeans and a hoodie, or jogging pants. The hardest part is finding clothes long enough or which are not too tight in the back/armpit area. I own custom tailored clothing, but can not afford a completely custom wardrobe.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

My maternal grandmother ran a dressmaking business in Tokyo and employed 10 seamstresses. My mother says she never had to wear anything off the rack. So, I grew up being taught about quality of tailoring, detail, textile, style, colour, etc. This means I'm always looking at garments to see how well they are made before I even consider buying them. I don't care if they're designer garments or not, they have to be well made. I have a penchant for vintage and have always combined vintage or antique pieces with my clothes. I love Art Deco jewellery and own a few pieces - being an antiques dealer helps me find unique pieces. I also appreciate contemporary, avant garde and minimalist designs as well.

So, my style? As a teenager, I used to mimic Françoise Sagan and dress in black clothes with a string of pearls around my neck. Now, I would say it's eclectic. The basic colour is black combined with a splash of vivid colours, to which I add a piece of vintage jewellery or a hand beaded scarf. And hats. I love hats. I love them so much that I even took millinery courses and have an advanced certificate. I am so hat obsessed, I am in serious need of a separate room for storing my hats.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

I've just started building my "style" (necessitated by weight loss) and have found myself gravitating to a clean and modern look. I like well fitting clothing (not skinny/tight but slim. Prefer more minimalist styles (not plain but relatively subdued).

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

Dress shabbily and they remember the dress, dress impeccably and they remember the woman-Coco Chanel
I fell the same as Coco except change the gender and noun. I don't use this with frags, I still wear what I like. Whether feminine or masculine, it's my way off being myself.

Re: How would you describe your personal style?

I dress business like for work, am known for wearing well kept clothing, well shined shoes, manicured finger nails, well shaven and short hair. Outside of work, I like am pretty much casual but dressy. Oh one more thing, I am well known for always smelling wonderful that is in no small part based on the fabulous information I acquire here on BN. Thank you all.
